Ubuntu Installation
Installation of Ubuntu Server needs to be done to install and configure Samba server.
Samba File Server Installation and Configuration
//Install Samba packages after updating repositories.
//Creating folder for anonymous sharing
//Changing the ownership to nobody so everyone can access the folder.

//After copying the files to the wanted directory using the sudo cp
/etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf.org command, the
configuration above is added at the end of the smb.conf file.
//Restart the service after applying the configurations.
//Create a new directory that will be used as secured folder.
//Create a new group smbproj1 so that only the users within the group can access
project1 directory.
//Change ownership and permission for directory.
//Open the configuration file.
//Define values in the configuration file.
//restart the service
//Create an extra user to access the previously created Project1 share.

//Add password for user john.
//The network needs to be configured to copy th MS 2k8 file from the remote server.
// It shows that the file server can be pinged.

//By logging in, we can access the file.
//Open the directory where the file is stored.
//Showing where the file’s directory is located.

//Showing the list of all the files within the sub-directory.
//Using the ‘rsync’ command, we copied the files from the remote server to the local pc.
// Moved the file to samba server so groupmates can access.
// Accessing Samba Server

// This shows that the iso file is available on the Samba Server with an IP Address of
192.168.56.102
// Copy the windows 2k8 server to desktop.

//Files was copied.
Installing
Windows
2008
Server
//Use the iso file to install the Windows server in the VirtualBox.
//Choose the desired language to install.
//An activation key is not needed to install this server, so just click Next.
//Choose the Enterprise Edition. After doing so, put a check on the check box to confirm
the selection.
//Wait for the installation to finish.

// The server will require a new user to have a password. Input the password within the
right form to start the server.
//After installing, it will direct you into a Windows 2008 Server startup that will be
looking like this. This means that Windows 2008 Server is successfully installed.
Observation
In this activity, some of my observations are based on the installing process. First,
I observed that installing servers are neither difficult nor easy but an individual needs to
be careful. Another thing I have observed is that computer speed and internet speed
plays a vital role in installing servers. Some tasks may have been finished early only if
the computer and internet works efficiently. Lastly, it is important to document the
installation so that you may look back to what you have done whenever an error
occurred. It may also help to fix the errors.
Recommendation
In this activity, I recommend to stay cautious even in the typing process. Be aware
that number “1” and letter “l’ may look the same at some instances. Next thing is to
make sure you have stable internet first because the tasks you are working on may be
finished on a long process or worse it may not be finished at all. Lastly, I recommend to
check the Adapters in the VirtualBox and its configuration in the Ubuntu server because
this will be a huge factor for you to make the internet work.
Conclusion
I have concluded in this activity that Windows 2008 server’s installation is easy.
There may be some unfamiliarities in this activity but I was able to get pass through it.
What makes this activity difficult is the sharing of files between remote desktops and its
copying process since we are not familiar with it but the good thing is the task was
finished.
Lessons Learned
This activity brought new skills and lessons to me. Before, I could not perform
troubleshooting from the Samba Server installation but in this activity I was able to do it.
Next, I learned the syntax of the command “scp” and “rsync”. This can be used to copy
files from a remote server. Lastly, I learned to install the Windows 2008 Server in a
VirtualBox.
